Notes for ELIZA JANE TUCKER:

  • **The following bit of history was written by - Samantha Elizabeth French Shattuck daughter of James Arthur French from information obtained from Lilley May French Bishop sister of James Arthur French.***

Elizabeth Tucker was blind so everything had its place, so she could get what she wanted and needed.

She did all her own washing, ironing, cooking and baking, and besides her farm chores they say she kept her house and children as clean as anyone with good eye sight.

After the death of her husband William Henry French II in 1890 she moved to Ramah, Colorado and lived with her son Albert French at Ramah, Colorado. She is buried in the Cemetery at Ramah, Colorado.

She was known as a shouting Methodist and at all times was a radiant, happy Christian woman, with no complaints about her handicap.
